With the Severance Season 2 garnering HUGE critical acclaim and a slew of Emmy Nominations (including Outstanding Drama Series + Lead & Supporting Actors), Greg & John clock in at last for their Severance Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Series Movie Spoiler Review!! Join us as we dive into the mind-bending world of Severance, the hit Apple TV+ sci-fi thriller series created by Dan Erickson and directed in its early episodes by Ben Stiller (Tropic Thunder, Escape at Dannemora). The show follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott – Parks and Recreation, Step Brothers), an employee at Lumon Industries who has undergone a mysterious “severance” procedure separating his work and personal memories into two distinct consciousnesses. In Episode 1 (“Good News About Hell”), we’re introduced to Mark’s eerie work environment, his co-workers Helly R. (Britt Lower – Man Seeking Woman, High Maintenance), Irving Bailiff (John Turturro – The Big Lebowski, O Brother, Where Art Thou?), and Dylan George (Zach Cherry – You, Crashing), as well as his enigmatic boss Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette – The Green Mile, Sharp Objects). The unsettling onboarding of Helly R. sets the tone for Lumon’s strange corporate culture. Episode 2 (“Half Loop”) delves deeper into the rules and restrictions of the severed floor, with tense moments like Helly’s repeated escape attempts, Irving’s mysterious hallway wanderings, and the ominous first hints of “the break room.” Outside of work, Mark begins to question the limits of his own divided life. The dual timelines and haunting tone make for standout sequences that have quickly become fan favorites. Greg & John unpack the symbolism, foreshadowing, and corporate dystopia while spotlighting standout performances from the cast, including Christopher Walken (Catch Me If You Can, The Deer Hunter) as Burt Goodman and Tramell Tillman (Hunters, Elementary) as the intimidating Mr. Milchick. From Lumon’s cryptic slogans to Helly’s chilling resignation video, we break down all the details in this Severance deep-dive.
